Background
The new Ljubljana fair grounds were established in the mid 1950s and the construction accelerated due to the VIIth Congress of the Communist Party of Yugoslavia that took place in Ljubljana in April 1958. The ambitious halls and pavilions were built from 1954 till the late 1960s according to the plans by Branko Simčič, Milan Mihelič and Ilija Arnautović.
